Starting a warm engine
Follow the same procedure as for start-
ing a cold engine with the exception
that the starter is not required when the
engine is warm.
TIP
If the engine does not start at high
altitude, start the engine with the
throttle grip opened by one degree
or two degrees.
The mark on the throttle housing
indicates five degrees. Use the
mark for your reference when
opening the throttle grip.

tral position, press the shift pedal down
